The Vintage Twin.

Worth it, says Antonina. The Vintage Twin feels more like a boutique than a thrift store, but everything on the racks is secondhand, reworked, or upcycled in some way.

Worth it
  • Address543 Broadway, New York, NY 10012
  • From my guide, updated September 2026.

The Vintage Twin feels more like a boutique than a thrift store, but everything on the racks is secondhand, reworked, or upcycled in some way. I first found it during a pop-up event and was immediately drawn to the one-of-a-kind denim and graphic tees. The pieces feel thoughtfully chosen and often redesigned, so even basics like flannels or jeans have a little extra personality.

I’ve picked up some of my most-worn pieces here (things I wouldn’t have known to look for but instantly loved once I tried them on!). If you’re trying to build a wardrobe that feels intentional and unique without buying brand new, The Vintage Twin is a great spot to know.

Worth it, says Antonina. Been? Say if you agree.
